Describing the Indescribable

Rosy Talarzyk

1 Corinthians 2:16

The book of Revelation talks about many indescribable events that are supernaturally empowered. It describes a cosmic war and suffering on a scale never before seen. Yet, it is a book of profound hope. Jesus overcomes the world. We, as His followers, are also overcomers and receive amazing rewards. In God's mercy, everyone is given an invitation to join Him in overcoming. May everyone "Who has an ear, let him hear" this invitation and accept it.

God's Kingdom

Mike Sullivan

Ezekiel 39:9-48:35

Ezekiel has a vision that lays out the blueprints for the new temple in the Millennial Kingdom. Despite the vast amount of misinformation that has been spread concerning the End Times, we should not shy away from the topic but instead look to the Bible to decipher what is true.

War

Dispelling Confusion About the Day of the Lord

Conrad Hilario

Mysterious Events at the End

Dennis McCallum

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12

In this passage, the Day of the Lord is discussed as well as mysterious events that happen as the End Times unfold.

Living with Hope

Scott Risley

1 Thessalonians 4:9-5:11

In God's plan for humanity, we were never meant to experience death, but since Adam and Eve sinned, we all have or will experience the evil of death. But Christians do not need to fear death as Scripture is clear, when we die, we go immediately to be with Jesus. Jesus promises to someday come back to earth to gather together those who have put their faith in Him, and take us to heaven, whether we have already died or are still alive on earth. Then the Tribulation period will begin.
